TY - JOUR PY - 1995// TI - Abandonment of mandatory jail for impaired drivers in Norway and Sweden JO - Accident analysis and prevention A1 - Klette, H. A1 - Ross, Hugh Laurence SP - 151 EP - 157 VL - 27 IS - 2 N2 - In 1988 and 1990, respectively, Norway and Sweden adopted legal reforms including abandonment of mandatory jail sentences for persons driving with BACs above specific limits. Interrupted time-series analysis finds that in both countries traffic deaths diminished simultaneously with the reforms, consistent with the understanding that Scandinavian success in reducing impaired driving does not depend upon mandatory jail.
